The Insurance Court dismissed the applicant's request to have their second full-time employment treated as full-time income for unemployment benefits calculation. The court found that the Unemployment Insurance Act's provision intended to limit benefits for those holding multiple full-time jobs, thereby classifying the second position as part-time work. Consequently, the unemployment benefit level was adjusted based on the income from the primary job alone.

X on työskennellyt samanaikaisesti kahdessa kokoaikaisessa työssä ja hänen työttömyyspäivärahansa on määritelty niistä saaduista tuloista suuremman perusteella. VakO on katsonut, että työttömyysturvalain 23 §:n 4 momentin tarkoituksena on katsottava olevan rajoittaa kokoaikaista päätyötä ja sivutyötä tehneen työttömyysturvan taso päätyöstä saatujen tulojen mukaiseksi. Tämän vuoksi X:n toista työtä huolimatta sen kokoaikaisuudesta on pidettävä lainkohdassa tarkoitettuna sivutyönä. Työttömyysturvalautakunnan päätöksen lopputulosta ei muutettu.
